The contractor, Vollers Excavating and Construction, expects to complete work by the end of April, weather permitting. Work hours will be from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. weekdays. Work outside of these hours is not expected unless required to maintain the project schedule. Final street restorations will be completed in the summer.
